Song: This was my life
Album: Countdown to Extinction
Artist: Megadeth
Tabbed by: John mercer
E-mail: spacenumber6@hotmail.com
This tab is complete
Timing isn't exact, that's hard to do
but I did the best I could
Solo timing is pretty much exact,
but you should still listein,
to the CD for it's exact timing.
I'm also not sure on some chord names,
so I made them up
